NeoDiamond
Dentists everywhere have been increasingly loyal to single-patient-use burs—and for good reason
Like any successful dental product, Microcopy’s NeoDiamond burs have evolved over the years. Take, for example, NeoDiamond Z-Class Cutters and Adjusters, designed to tackle even the trickiest zirconia restorations with ease. But regardless of their job, all NeoDiamond burs share a common gene, one that has been embedded in their DNA for over 30 years: single-patient use.
The Little Pink Box
The year was 1989, when puffed sleeves and shoulder pads were the height of fashion and Janet Jackson and Phil Collins topped the Billboard charts. While headlines swirled around the global AIDS crisis, heightening concerns over infection control, Microcopy surprised the dental world by introducing what was once thought impossible: a high-quality, single-patient-use diamond bur. With burs wrapped in individual poly packets and stored in a bright pink box, NeoDiamond was hard to miss.
This new concept of single patient-use was intriguing to dentists, who would no longer need to worry about reusing burs that may be contaminated from previous patients, nor would they find themselves fighting against the cutting performance of a used, worn-out bur. To top it all off, NeoDiamond came at a significantly lower price point than the expensive multiuse burs that dominated the market. All things considered, it’s really no surprise that today, 30 years later, NeoDiamond is the No. 1-selling single-patient-use diamond.
Like a Hot Knife Through Butter
As one DPS evaluator put it, NeoDiamond “cuts like a hot knife through butter,” thanks to 20% more diamond exposure. Paired with advanced Triton bonding technology, the burs offer superior hardness and longevity, while creating precise, crisp margins. A Swiss-made XactFit shank, unique to NeoDiamond, adheres to the strictest shank diameter tolerances in the industry to prevent burs from walking out of the handpiece. Lastly, gamma sterilization gives NeoDiamond burs their single-use stamp of approval.
A Bur to Write Home About
While it’s easy to assume that the excitement of a new product and concept would deflate over the course of 3 decades, that’s not been the case for NeoDiamond. In fact, a renewed focus on infection control in the practice has only strengthened NeoDiamond’s popularity among dentists everywhere.
